    Anyone here involved in running an airport?

    A place like this you do for the love of being on an airport. No way anyone is gonna make a lot money with this. Someone can buy it and start jacking up the fees, but that will chase people away.

    Students are "Learners" now...........

    Been a CFI over 20 years, I am not using the term learner. I actually feel bad for the ones that do use the term. Just as I will still call it a BFR. It amuses me even more when someone uses the term BFR and some FAA fanboy chimes in and tries to correct them that is is no longer called BFR.

    Why do they say "Anyone can learn how to fly"?

    Anyone with any resemblance of a brain can be taught to taxi, takeoff, fly straight and level in just a few short hours. Now, landing, that’s the tricky part.

    Missing Plane Paris, Texas

    Gotta disagree with a portion of that. I think kids, adults, everyone has a whole lot more resources to get help. Even mental, emotional problems are more easily accepted than 20 years ago.

    Talking on the radio improvements

    I find new pilots wanna sound all professional and use words they aren’t familiar with. I tell the just talk like they would be talking to a bartender. Don’t over think it. Just have a conversation.

    Discouraging flight last night

    Remember a forecast is just a prediction, not a report. So unexpected wind shear, turbulence, etc is usually a surprise. And getting that when your not comfort level will sting. Just remember, if you can handle those winds during the day, you can handle them at night. You made the right call...
